Mike Gular will have plenty of options in 2008.The 24-year-old driver recently set plans for the new season that includes competition at Grandview (Pa.) Speedway, Penn-Can (Pa.) Speedway and select big-block Modified events in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Maryland and Delaware.
On Saturday nights, Green Lane, Pa.‘s Gular will compete in a No. 8 NASCAR Whelen All-American Series 358-Modified owned by Steve Kratz of Hatfield, Pa., at Grandview Speedway. The Tri Tech Machine-powered Bicknell 2008x chassis will sport primary sponsorship from Banes Roofing (Telford, Pa.) and Financial House Group (Worcester, Pa.).
It will mark Gular’s first season driving for Kratz’s S&N Racing Team at the one-third-mile, high-banked clay oval.
On Friday nights, Gular will return to Penn-Can Speedway in defense of his 2007 Modified track championship driving a family-fielded No. 53 backed by Northern Wilderness Outfitters of Alberta, Canada. The team will use the same Leroy Denny 9-to-1 compression small-block engine and 2007x Bicknell chassis that went to Victory Lane on three occasions last season in addition to clinching the points title by 50 points over Jeff Rudalavage at the Reed Miller/Al Wilcox-promoted three-eighths-mile oval.
On Dec. 4, an agreement was forged with THP that will propel Gular Motorsports into the big-block Modified realm.
Driving a self-owned No. 53 with primary sponsorship from THP, a residential development company founded by Tim and Todd Hendricks, Gular will compete in up to 20 big-block Modified special events at Selinsgrove (Pa.), Hagerstown (Md.), Grandview, Big Diamond (Pa.), New Egypt (N.J.), Bridgeport (N.J.) and Delaware International.
